To solve the equation \( 4x - 8 = 16 \), follow these steps:
1. **Add 8 to both sides** to isolate the term with \( x \):
\[
4x - 8 + 8 = 16 + 8
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
4x = 24
\]
2. **Divide both sides by 4** to solve for \( x \):
\[
x = \frac{24}{4}
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
x = 6
\]
Thus, the solution is \( x = 6 \).
1. **Add 8 to both sides** to isolate the term with \( x \):
\[
4x - 8 + 8 = 16 + 8
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
4x = 24
